Talent Analysis

Severyn is not the biggest of forwards but will battle in the tough areas around the net and along the boards. He has average speed, offensive and defensive skills. The smart centerman will be a fourth line player who can help on the power play and penalty killing but must increase his muscle mass to play at the professional level.

Future

Severyn will need to impress the Flames at training camp to get an entry level contract or could be released. He could be assigned to the AHL Abbottsford Heat to adjust to the professional level and the grueling schedule.
